When they announced the Cruiserweight match, did they explicitly say it was for the pre show? I wouldn't expect anything else. No, but they usually don’t announce what the pre-show matches are until the go-home week.

Balor vs Corbin made official. The match literally no one asked for. Please god put this on the Kickoff. One of the biggest selling points to Summerslam the last three years - the appearance of the Demon - is not getting bumped to the kickoff show, however much of a waste it may seem to be used on the likes of Corbin.

This feels like an extremely top-heavy card. There's four blockbuster, main event-level matches in Roman Reigns versus Brock Lesnar, Samoa Joe versus AJ Styles, Ronda Rousey versus Alexa Bliss, and The Miz versus Daniel Bryan. But after that, the undercard falls off into a series of rematches of matches we've already seen time and again on Raw and SmackDown.
Who is out there pining for another Finn Balor versus Baron Corbin match? Or what about the latest in the never-ending series between Seth Rollins and Dolph Ziggler? We've already seen Jeff Hardy and Shinsuke Nakamura and Kevin Owens versus Braun Strowman on previous pay-per-views. For what's supposed to be the WrestleMania of the summer, we have four WrestleMania-worthy matches and then seven filler matches that would be in the middle of shows like Backlash or Extreme Rules.

Will B-Team defend their titles, they're the only Champions with no date.

Someone mentioned this recently but how cool would it be to have a press conference with the 8 involved in those 4 matches. It would be amazing and entertaining, and Brock and Ronda would bring an air of legitimacy to it.

Does Reigns vs. Lesnar really count as a blockbuster match when not a single person in the arena is going to do anything but boo the f*** out of it?

I hope Hardy and Nak go balls to the wall, Nak hasn't had a barn burner since his debut, he needs one.

Rusev/Lana v Almas/Vega confirmed for the Kickoff. Guessing this will end with Rusev finally destroying Aiden. Either then or the Smackdown after.

I'm sure there will be plenty of people chanting "CM PUNK!", "STEROIDS!" and "WE WANT (insert name of MitB briefcase holder here)!".

I'm expecting Miz v Bryan to steal the show and be an all time great match To be honest, Bryan is getting punked out so much that I half-expect Miz to be squashed in a crowd-pleasing moment. The 'real' match happens at Hell in a Cell, maybe completely with the cell gimmick, and Bryan's career on the line.

Terry Crews hype video. Wonder if he'll put in an appearance in a backstage segment or anything?

The B-Team defend the Raw tag titles against The Revival on the kickoff.
It was mentioned on Raw that also on the kickoff (along with Rusev/Lana vs Almas/Vega) will be the Cruiserweight title match between Cedric Alexander and Drew Gulak.
